Xia Boran had already guessed that the person who emptied the basement was Xia Chiwan, so he went to the other village to have a look just to make sure.
After confirming this, Xia Boran, who returned to Xia Mansion, was naturally in a bad mood.
However, the news that Xia Boran left the house and went to another village was still known to Xia Chiwan.
Of course, Xia Boran had no time to be distracted by this.
Xia Boran thought about this matter for a long time, and the only solution he could think of was to refuse to admit it.
If the emperor sends someone to get him, he will show that he doesn't know anything about it, and the things in the basement will naturally have nothing to do with him.
You know, apart from being found in his villa, those things actually don't have much direction.
Of course, Xia Boran didn't know whether it would succeed or not.
But to catch thieves and cheat, and to catch cheaters and cheaters, this "physical evidence" can certainly be said to be framed.
No matter what, Xia Boran will naturally fight for his own life.
Xia Boran only thought that if the emperor came to arrest someone, he would kill him and deny it.
Unexpectedly, the emperor never gave him that chance. The next day, Xia Chiwan came to Xia Mansion with the imperial edict.
This time Xia Chiwan appeared, even though Xia Boran was Xia Chiwan's biological father.
However, as soon as Xia Chiwan's imperial edict came out, Xia Boran still had to kneel down to Xia Chiwan.
"Wan'er came today with an imperial edict. Although he is not filial, he can only kneel down to accept my father."
Xia Boran was not very willing to kneel down. As soon as Xia Chiwan said these words, Xia Boran's body froze.
Immediately, Xia Boran smiled:
"Today my daughter has come with an imperial edict. This kneeling is not yours. It has nothing to do with you. It doesn't matter whether you accept it or not."
After Xia Boran retorted, he knelt down naturally and generously.
It was as if Xia Chiwan was transparent in his eyes, and the only thing he could see was the emperor's imperial edict.
Faced with Xia Boran's self-deception, Xia Chiwan smiled and read out the imperial edict directly.
The imperial edict contained a capital crime, and the emperor wanted Xia Boran to die.
"The common people are wronged, the common people are wronged!"
When Xia Boran heard that the emperor did not even question the guilt, he issued an imperial edict to kill himself. He complained that he was wronged.
"Dad, don't be anxious. Although you are no longer worthy of being a member of the Great Zhou Kingdom, Wan'er's body is indeed filled with half of your blood."
Seeing Xia Boran's fear of death, Xia Chiwan felt that her trip today was really not in vain.
It turned out that the cold-blooded and aloof father who refused to ask for help was actually afraid of death.
"In order to return half of your flesh and blood, I have asked my father for your life."
Then, Xia Chiwan announced the second imperial edict.
In the second imperial edict, on the premise that Xia Chiwan sacrificed "many interests", Xia Boran's life was "finally" saved.
However, even if Xia Boran did not have to die, the emperor still said:
Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped.
The most cruel thing was that the guard with a knife sent by the emperor took Xia Boran out of the Xia Mansion and on the street where people were coming and going. Then he took off Xia Boran's pants and forced Xia Boran to lie down on the bench.
Then hit twenty big boards again.
As a tall and dignified man, Xia Boran certainly has a very strong self-esteem.
Even if he has never been an official in the government and holds the important position of prime minister, he still cannot accept it.
